Any one of us can fall and injure one of the most susceptible parts of our bodies, the wrist. The wrists are delicate joints and often ignored in most workout regimes. Therefore, some yoga poses enables you to strengthen your joints and prevent wrist injury.

The cat and dog tilt allows you to exercise the wrist, shoulder, and elbows to strengthen the joints. Coming down on all fours you must inhale as you allow the hips to drop downwards as the chin reaches the sky. Next while you exhale, pull the abdomen towards the spine while the back curves away from the floor.

Maintaining your position on all four limbs, you must stretch the right leg backwards and your left arm in the front while inhaling. Next bring back the leg and arm in position while you exhale. On the next count, repeat the stretch with the left leg and right arm. Follow this by resting your body with the knees slightly apart.

Return to the position on all fours. While you inhale, press the arms and legs straight in to a plank position. The entire weight of your body must rest on the hands and balls of the feet. Exhale and pull the abdominal muscles towards the spine away from the floor.

Another beneficial yoga pose is the half and full handstand where the foot is raised at the height of the hip while standing a few feet away from the wall. The full handstand must be practiced only after you are comfortable with the half handstand.
The above-mentioned yoga exercises ensure strengthening the joints of your wrists. Therefore, you will be able to avoid wrist injury in case you fall down. Moreover, these poses are beneficial in strengthening the upper body to prevent injuries. For best results, it is recommended you follow these exercises two times every week.
